Why does the vertical component of velocity for a projectile change with time, whereas the horizontal component of velocity does

not change?
Physics
1 answer:
dlinn [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer

When a body moves in projectile motion it has two components. One of the components is a horizontal component of the velocity and another is a vertical component.

The velocity along the horizontal component does not change because there is no acceleration long horizontal component.  

Whereas velocity along vertical direction keeps on changing because the acceleration due to gravity is acting on the object. At a maximum height of the projectile velocity is equal to zero.

The density of water is 1.00 g/cm3. What is its density in kg/m3?
r-ruslan [8.4K]
1 g = 1 ÷ 1000 kg
= 0.001 kg

1 cm³ = 1 ÷ 100 ÷ 100 ÷ 100 m³
= 0.000001 m³

1 g/cm³ = 1 g / 1 cm³
= 0.001 kg / 0.000001 m³
= 1000 kg/m³

The density is 1000 kg/m³.

A 60-kg skier starts at the top of a 10-meter high slope. At the bottom, she is traveling 10 m/s. How much energy does she lose
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
The potential energy of the skier at the top is
60 kg (9.81 m/s2) (10 m) = 5886 J

Her kinetic energy at the bottom is
(1/2) (60 kg) (10 m/s)^2 = 3000 J

The energy lost to friction is
5886 J - 3000 J = 2886 J
